The Hero: Flint Meyers – he is a wolf shifter and a Special Forces Weapons Sergeant, his weapons are very important to him, he doesn’t like going anywhere without them. He makes them himself. After getting ejected from his pack by his cousin who had never liked Flint, he joined the military and later got a job and found a family with the Special Ops Shifter Force. He had been feeling restless for the past few weeks, so much so that he has been changing into his wolf form and going on some midnight runs a lot more often than usual.

The heroine: Audra Larson – she is the sister of the Alpha of a pack of wolf shifters in Colorado. She had just returned to the pack, with her son after divorcing her ex-husband, Luke. He cheated on her, and they never did anything but argue, so she packed up and moved in with her parents, temporarily. She isn’t quite sure what she wanted to do with her life or where she wanted to live.

The Story: There are a couple of wolf packs in Colorado that have been having issues over territory, and it has gotten so bad that shifters are being attacked on the streets resulting in major injuries and a few deaths. The mission was a perfect match for Flint. So, he was off to Colorado Springs to investigate.

Like the first two books in this series, there is a good romantic suspense storyline about the mission. In this one, there are some good supporting characters, including Audra’s brother. Flint has to try to join their pack to do his investigation and he can’t take his eyes off Audra when he gets there. Her presence distracts him from his mission, and he ends up taking her captive which adds to the intrigue of the story. Not to mention the sizzling chemistry between the two main characters.

This audiobook was narrated from multiple perspectives, done in solo narration by Stephen Borne. Stephen Borne has a deep, gravelly voice that I quite like for the alpha bear shifter. Of course, any man with a deep voice doesn’t have the best voice for the female characters, though his isn’t as distracting as some. Overall, the narration was done well, though I do tend to listen to dual and duet narration much more often than solo.
